LEAD FANTASY Andre Norton FORGE BOOKS MAY 2016 LEAD FICTION Larry Bond Lash-Up An explosive thriller from New York Times bestselling author Larry Bond GPS satellites are vital to the US military. They allow units to navigate confidently over trackless wastes and can direct aircraft and weapons to within feet of their targets. When China provokes a military crisis with the United States and then starts shooting down GPS satellites, Ray McConnell, an engineer at the Navy's Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command, knows he must act quickly. Without the satellites America's military capabilities will be crippled and China will gain an enormous advantage in any future conflict. The only way the satellites can be protected is from orbit, so McConnell's team of soldier-scientists must construct an armed spacecraft capable of knocking weapons out of the sky. The fate of the nation depends on their success.

  • Quag Keep Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE Announcing Development of QUAG KEEP The Andre Norton Estate Joins with George Strayton to Develop Fantasy Adventure Film Based on Novel “Quag Keep” Indianapolis, IN (Friday, August 17, 2012)—Screenwriter and producer George Strayton and the Andre Norton Estate have jointly announced today that they have entered into an agreement to develop Quag Keep by award-winning author Andre Norton into an action-packed, 3D, fantasy- adventure feature film. “We couldn't ask for a better filmmaker to bring Andre’s work to the big screen,” said Sue Stewart, executor of the Andre Norton Estate. “We’re very excited about moving the project forward.” Strayton added, “It’s an honor to help re-introduce Andre Norton to a whole new legion of fans in the form of a summer tentpole film.” They were roleplaying gamers in our world. Each came from a different place and a different background. Now they’ve been magically transported into the game of wizards and dragons. Can they band together to unlock the secret of their summoning, save their own world, and finally find a way back home without completely freaking out, getting themselves killed, or both…? Published in 1978 and still in print, Quag Keep was the first novel based on the world of Dungeons & Dragons—the progenitor of all modern roleplaying games from World of Warcraft to Halo to Call of Duty—and was written by the legendary, multi-award-winning grand-mistress of science fiction and fantasy, Andre Norton. About Andre Norton Considered one of the greatest American sci-fi/fantasy writers of all time, Andre Norton (1912 – 2005) authored dozens of novels under various noms de plume, including Andre Norton, Andrew North, and Allen Weston.

  • The Traveller Chronicle Short Fiction
    The Science Fiction In Traveller A Reader’s Guide to Traveller Role-Playing Fiction By Shannon Appelcline Far Future Enterprises 2016 Preface Award-winning reviewer Shannon Appelcline (Designers & Dragon) investigates the science-fiction literature that shaped the structure and content of the Traveller science-fiction role-playing game. He reviews and discusses the broad expanse of SF that influenced Marc Miller as he designed the massive background universe of Traveller, and then gives equal consideration to the novels and short stories that were inspired by Traveller. Introduction I think that one of the best ways to prepare yourself for a roleplaying game is to immerse yourself in its fiction. It’s a way to gain a visceral, unconscious understanding of a game world — allowing you to instinctively respond to your player’s action in the context of a real universe. So, when I decided to run a Mongoose Traveller game in 2009, I started reading. Marc Miller has listed a number of novels that influenced Traveller over the years, and I began with some of those — including classics from the ‘50s and ‘60s by authors that I was largely unfamiliar with, like H. Beam Piper, E.C. Tubb, and Keith Laumer. They helped me to gain a better appreciation not just for Traveller’s universe, but also for science fiction’s history. I could have read scores more “inspirational” novels, but instead I moved on to the novels actually written about the Traveller universe. Though Traveller doesn’t have the depth of D&D’s fiction line, I was happy to discover that there were about a dozen novels that were “Traveller” to various degrees.

The winning novel, Sos The Rope, won out over about 45 other entries. Fantasy & Science Fiction will serialize the novel during the late summer and it will appear as a Pyramid book in the late Autumn. Sos The Rope is a post-nuclear war story. Its hero is known as Sos The Rope. The title bears no relation to a distress signal, as your reporter at first thought. The contest attracted about 45 entries, including a dozen flying saucer novels of doubt­ ful comjpetance, and a collection of mysteries having nothing to do with sf. The sub­ mitting authors were almost exclusively amateurs, with only about 4 previously pub­ lished in the sf field. Piers Anthony has written several short stories, ChThon, published by Ballantine, and several dozen letters to the letter column of Niekas. He is currently living in Florida. (Source: Donald R.

  • Media Translations of Fantasy Worlds
    A World of Difference: Media Translations of Fantasy Worlds Rachel Louise Mizsei Ward Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of Film, Television and Media Studies May 2013 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there-from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Rachel Mizsei Ward University of East Anglia Abstract The modern consumer has access to a massively complex entertainment world. Many of the products available reveal a visible movement of popular fantasy worlds between different media. This transmedia process creates a strong link between film, merchandising and games; with all of these mediums borrowing from each other. This borrowing takes various forms, from licensed adaptations to unofficial copying of ideas, settings and characters as well as exploiting the different aesthetics and techniques of different media. Much of the scholarship on transmedia concentrates on storytelling, where a single overarching narrative unfolds over several different media. This thesis will move away from storytelling to consider how culture producers borrow the aesthetics, narratives and fantasy worlds from other sources, including computer games. This borrowing happens because it enables them to use transmedia functionality to gain market share from an already established audience who have a vested interested in, and enthusiasm for, an established world. Most of this borrowing happens around specific genres – especially fantasy, science fiction and horror. These genres are particularly wide-ranging and emphasise the possibilities of worldbuilding, making then good sources for multi-media franchises.
